Part
14: Mass immigration into America constitutes illogical thinking leading
to disastrous results.

In
1965, our U.S. Senate passed the Immigration Reform Act that changed
annual migration into America from 175,000 annually to 1.2 and as
high as 1.5 million immigrants from all over the world every year.
Within 40 years, the United States blasted from 196 million people
to 300 million in October of 2006. From that point in 1965, we added
104 million more problems to our civilization. We haven’t begun
to solve the problems of that many people impacting
our cities, our environment and our way of life. We fantasize that
our civilization can avoid the results now impacting other overpopulated
countries like China, Mexico, Haiti and India.

If
the 1965 immigration bill continues in place, America expects to add
138 million people by 2050 while it accelerates to over 625 million
by the end of the century. Ultimately, we will exceed one billion
people. If the current amnesty continues, another 20 million illegal
alien migrants will enjoy instant citizenship, which will, in turn,
allow chain migration of 10 members each of their families to add
a possible total of over 100 million more people.

(Millions
of Americans line up for food at food banks daily. Over 47 million
Americans subsist on food stamps. Over 13 million American children
live below the poverty line. Poverty has become entrenched in America
and grows worse with endless immigration out of the third world.)
Photography by John Partipilo Congress passed the immigration bill
without any understanding or the consequential ramifications to adding
over 100 million people to the United States. They thought not one
second about environmental degradation, energy depletion or resource
exhaustion. They gave no thought to degraded quality of life or standard
of living.

(Countless
Americans and illegal migrants live in tent cities and in abandoned
warehouses around the United States. They lack toilets, clean water
and heat. We can expect millions more as we import millions of third
world refugees. We cannot keep up with the numbers nor can we provide
jobs.) Photography by Joakim Eskildsen

Today
in 2015, we drive millions of cars through toxic, air polluted cities
with endless honking, sirens, concrete jungles and human compaction.
We separate ourselves from nature via steel, glass and asphalt. We
face endless emotional, physiological and neurological diseases engendered
by fast paced modern living.

“To
establish immigration policy without first establishing population
policy is both illogical . . . and undemocratic!” Edward
C. Hartman author of The Population Fix: Breaking America’s
Addiction to Population Growth.

Hartman
said, “Population growth in America may not be a physiological
addiction, but it has become an economic, political and psychological
addiction negatively affecting virtually every American.”

(Millions
of poverty stricken Americans live in trailers. Two of Adell White
Dog Johnson's grandchildren sleep in their strollers near their family's
burned-down trailer in Eagle Butte, S.D. Adell, 45, had complained
about the wiring the previous week. No one was hurt in the fire, but
her family lost everything they had, including a computer they had
recently bought. Adell, who also lost her previous trailer to an electrical
fire, makes less than minimum wage as a dishwasher at a local restaurant.
FEMA sells Native Americans condemned trailers, which are dangerous
to live in. Residents also have little incentive to buy their own
home, since it disqualifies them from receiving general assistance.
The system on the reservation, created in part by the Federal Government,
has created a dependent society, the antithesis of Native Americans’
desire to be a self-reliant and sovereign nation.) Photography by

Today,
Mr. Obama and another U.S. Congress not only huddle to give 20 million
illegal aliens instant citizenship, they may include adding another
one million immigrants to the 1.2 million that already legally migrate
into the USA annually.

At
our current 321 million, Hartman points out our current problems:

•
Rising housing prices• Urban sprawl• Horrifically gridlocked traffic in all our
major cities• Rising infrastructure costs and rising taxes• Deterioration of public and social services• Impact of massive housing developments• Worsening air quality and water quality• Polarizing local politics and gridlocked
government• Rising unemployment• Spreading pavement and attendant problems
with runoff• Failing water supplies with seven states
suffering water shortages today• Destruction of farmland, wilderness and rivers• Lost quality of life

We
already see the horrendous consequences in America with our current
321-million population. Hartman asks us to reconsider what it will
be like when we reach one billion. China didn’t ask the question
until too late and India
refuses to ask it. It shows the power of culture and religion over
common sense and rational thinking.

Hartman
said, “America’s population pushers have a variety of
motives. However, many have one trait in common: they have never asked
themselves the question, ‘How many Americans are enough?”

Instead,
they push for “exponential growth” that leads to ultimate
collapse as discussed earlier in this series. How can such persons
be so myopic?

Today,
yet another 535 congressional critters huddle to expand mass immigration.
Again, they lack the intellectual talent or environmental understandings
of the impacts of millions of added people. They prove the following
statement: “The First Basic Law of Human Stupidity asserts without
ambiguity: always and inevitably everyone underestimates the number
of stupid individuals in circulation. At first, the statement sounds
trivial. Closer scrutiny reveals its veracity. No matter how high
are one's estimates of human stupidity, one is repeatedly startled
by the fact that: people whom one had once judged rational and intelligent
turn out to be unashamedly stupid. Additionally,
day after day, with unceasing monotony, one is harassed in one's activities
by stupid individuals who appear suddenly and unexpectedly in the
most inconvenient places and at the most improbable moments.”

As
you read this series, you cannot help but scratch your head as to
our ongoing folly as a civilization. It’s as if we cannot help
ourselves. Nonetheless, we must discover the courage and fortitude
to save ourselves.

Economist
Kenneth Boulding said, “Anyone who believes in indefinite growth
on a finite planet, is either mad or an economist.”

At
the end of his book, Hartman offers 13 methods for you to take action.
You must remember that a constitutional republic demands citizen participation.
We must take action to make sure those congressional critters take
the right action. Our destiny is not a matter of chance, it’s
a matter of our choosing to act and fulfill a positive outcome. You
cannot wait for your future to unfold positively; you must make it
a positive future for yourself and your fellow creatures that share
this planet with you.

you would like to make a difference, please join these organizations
for the most effective collective action you can take:

That’s
the problem. Oil will run out sooner or later. Nothing on the technological
horizon can replace it. In order to drive cars, boats, planes and fuel
industry, Americans use 20 million barrels of oil daily while the rest
of the world burns 82 million barrels.
